Improved bound for the union of fat triangles
SODA '11: Proceedings of the twenty-second annual ACM-SIAM symposium on Discrete algorithmsPages 1778–1785We show that, for any fixed δ > 0, the combinatorial complexity of the union of n triangles in the plane, each of whose angles is at least δ, is O(n2α(n) log* n), with the constant of proportionality depending on δ. This considerably improves the twenty-...

Computational geometry for non-geometers: recent developments on some classical problems
SODA '11: Proceedings of the twenty-second annual ACM-SIAM symposium on Discrete algorithmsPage 1437In this talk, I will discuss some "textbook exercises" in low-dimensional computational geometry that any algorithmist with no computational-geometry background can attempt to solve: Given a set of red and blue points, is there a red point dominating (...

Computing shortest paths amid pseudodisks
SODA '11: Proceedings of the twenty-second annual ACM-SIAM symposium on Discrete algorithmsPages 309–326Multiple objects in the plane are called pseudodisks if they are convex and the boundaries of any two of them intersect transversely at most twice. Given a set of n (possibly intersecting) pseudodisks of O(1) complexity each and two points s and t in the ...

Shortest non-crossing walks in the plane
SODA '11: Proceedings of the twenty-second annual ACM-SIAM symposium on Discrete algorithmsPages 297–308Let G be an n-vertex plane graph with non-negative edge weights, and let k terminal pairs be specified on h face boundaries. We present an algorithm to find k non-crossing walks in G of minimum total length that connect all terminal pairs, if any such ...
